The Alters slips from its planned release window until later in 2025

11bit Studios have announced that The Alters, the game where you play as yourself and also yourself, with support form yourself, has been delayed out of its planned Q1 2025 release, to now just sometime in 2025.

This is the second delay for the game, as it was first delayed in October 2024 to its then Q1 2025 release, with multiple delays never usually being a good sign. The official reason is the same as last time, they just need more time to make it better.

They have released a text versions of the delay statement, but it is worded like its from the company that your character in the game Jan Dolski works for, it is cute. Check it out.

Dear Mr. Dolski,

First and foremost, we would like to express our sincere appreciation for your persistent enthusiasm and unwavering dedication to Project Dolly—as reflected in the multitude of messages you have diligently sent to our offices in recent months. Your keen interest in the mission timeline has not gone unnoticed.

Following a comprehensive assessment of Project Dolly, we regret to inform you that your scheduled departure has been delayed beyond Q1 2025, with a revised launch window set for later in the year.

While we recognize that this may not be the update you were hoping for, this additional time is being dedicated to further refining mission parameters and ensuring that all essential systems meet Ally Corp’s uncompromising standards. Furthermore, it is also allowing us to integrate new enhancements into Project Dolly, ensuring that your eventual deployment is more exciting and rewarding than originally projected.

As you know, “almost ready” is not part of Ally Corp’s vocabulary. This additional time will allow us to ensure that every aspect of Project Dolly operates at peak efficiency, leading to an outcome that benefits both the organization and, of course, yourself. 

Your commitment to Project Dolly does not go unnoticed, and we look forward to providing you with a confirmed departure date in due course.
